Episode Narrative A potent late fall storm system generated several severe thunderstorms and a couple of tornadoes across North Mississippi during the late evening hours of November 5th.
Event Narrative The tornado developed near the bottoms of Twentymile Creek. As the tornado approached Highway 371 south of Kirkville, it uprooted and snapped trees and substantially damaged a metal garage building. After crossing Highway 371 the tornado continued to uproot and snap off numerous trees and caused minor damage to several mobile homes. The last damage observed was east of Ramey Road northeast before dissipating.
